[@KickItNaturally]

What steps have you taken to correct your insulin resistance?

[@BrookeOtto]

walking after meals

[@KickItNaturally]

HI Brooke. Walking after meals is OKAY. But watch this brand new video to understand how to get better results with your efforts: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5Omp6t4otl_l5Y Hope that helps.

Intermittent Fasting has worked so well for me these past 3 years; I’m just blown away by it. I do a clean fast, with only water, sparkling water, or black coffee. By stopping eating by 6 pm every evening and not eating until around noon the next day I can easily do 18 hour fasts each day. And I’m very mindful of the carbs I am consuming. This has totally changed my life! Lost over 40 lbs, am no longer pre-diabetic and feel better than I have in a long time! I’m 57.

[@KickItNaturally]

Way to go, @Tami Durcan ! The fasting can be a huge help, if the person's body is set up to succeed with fasting. Not everyone is. But the part about being mindful about your carbs is probably what is helping you succeed so much with the fasting. Keep it up!

Your soo informative,, wish I found your videos years ago ,,, ! And I love your sense of humour!

I really appreciate that.

Great video Sir. I want to add 2 vital elements to reduce insulin resistance : sleep and exercise.

[@atexinc.5472]

Blood sugar 129 in the morning after coffee about a month ago. Last week 117. Yesterday 109. Seems to be moving in the right direction but still room for improvement.

[@KickItNaturally]

True, but we like to see people take it first thing, before they eat or drink anything, even coffee.

[@amenodorime271]

Exactly, IF is not for everyone. Thank you. 👍

You are a natural born singer 😊

[@apocalypse9347]

The mailman’s shorts 🤣🤣🤣 Dang bro! Your videos are awesome. Chronic stress has kept me from healing. I’ve been doing keto, meditation, deep diaphragmatic breathing, etc and working on my sleep. Rumination is a killer. If I could fix my sleep, I could heal. I’m much better than in recent years thanks to keto and Alan Watts. Infinite gratitude for sharing your knowledge. Keep up the great work! Peace love and blessings 🙏

[@KickItNaturally]

Thanks so much. Have you seen our insomnia video? You're right that sleep is a huge deal so I hope this helps you down the right track: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXKQZ4R4jLKKjNk

You're welcome

Thanks for info. Was attempting intermittent fasting incorrectly. Starting to do it right!!😋

[@KickItNaturally]

Glad it was helpful.

[@boykalol-v7x]

What should i do if my blood sugar goes down when i cut sugar and carb totally? I have anxity of cutting them off which might make me faint of low blood sugar. What do u recommend me to do and what carb can i eat during this diet and what carb ?

[@KickItNaturally]

Love this question. I've added this to my list to make a video about so stay tuned.

[@judsjo]

Thank you Doc this makes a lot of sense for someone who has been doing IF for Years without any changes

[@KickItNaturally]

Not a doc, but glad it was helpful. :)

[@Leonardokite]

Did you ever do the video on how keto can cause insulin resistance?

[@doloresguertin9601]

Hi Anthony, so if a person has been on caRnivore/keto fir approaching 7 yrs, and has ketones albeit, extremely low, and BS is rising (extremely high at times), and also I believe I'm in catabolic dominant (expensive gluconeogenisus) state, and trying to address gut also. That being said there must be something I can do to bring BS down alongside my gut issue? I feel I'm missing something. I will try adding some carbs, but it never went well for me a few yrs ago. Definitely not metabolically flexible and feeling cornered into keto. Thanks for the learning

[@KickItNaturally]

Yeah, we see this a lot, and I even experienced myself after 5 years of strict keto and very low carb. This video can help exlain a little. kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3y0YYJ-gauFq6M but yes, there are usually imbalances involved. If you haven't already, Your best bet could be to go through our totally free digestion course because that will walk you through running simple self-tests you can run at home to get an idea of what imbalances can be creating trouble, and what steps would help you correct them. You can find that free course here: kickitnaturally.com/course and if you get stuck, this page lists a variety of ways to get help or find your own answers: kickitnaturally.com/get-help/ Come back and let us know how it goes.

How do I know if I'm IR apart from the HOMA-IR....by just using a Glucometer? I have one of those, but it was giving my different readings and I couldn't get enough blood either

[@Liz-bn8fw]

I wish we could download a pdf of each teaching so I can highlight stuff and review it and really listen rather than trying to take notes!

[@KickItNaturally]

You can download a copy of my book in PDF format for free here: kickitnaturally.com/free

[@leahdeal1333]

I just downloaded the ebook and will read it now but I'm just curious if you have my issue covered. I naturally have always been a one to two meal a day person. I don't usually eat when I wake up but usually eat somewhere between 11-1 and normally don't eat after 6-7 in the evening. My A1c was 5.7 and glucose was 103. My issue seems to be high stress levels as I married a bipolar and life was really crazy in the beginning! I am just now learning how to handle my thought life and emotional well being after seven years but honestly my whole life has been overly complicated since birth so my stress levels have been high all my life. I do eat junk food but everyone in my family does. My grandma lived 95 years eating whatever she wanted (even tortillas everyday and one Dr Pepper! Eggs and oatmeal every morning!) with her only problem being thyroid and she took meds for it for over 30 years! I have also been more seditary lately and need to move more. My digestion has never been normal! Heartburn (constant) , constipation, sharp pains under right rib, steakhouse disease... I don't believe I am doing anything out of the ordinary diet wise but still struggle with this problem.

[@the-vapist2242]

Is having almost no dietary fat a bad idea if i am insulin resistant? I did the online course the other day, problem is, due to various health problems and medicens side effects i have a lot of brain fog and memory problems. So its hard for me to think about several things at once. I would recomend that if anyone is serious about getting their health in order that they do the coarse, its well thought out and organised. All the videos are short and strait to the point. Even my wife learned stuff from it and she has the learning capacity of a brick.

[@KickItNaturally]

LOl. I've met some smart bricks in my time. :) Here is a video explaining how eating a low fat diet can lead to some bile flow issues: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpuvXmN-jqx_j7M Glad you're learning a lot from the course.

[@chuckredd9131]

Look at using Magnesium L- Threonate for brain fog...

Metabo Law ( Japan) ! If we wear size Medium and up and not a body builder, we have insulin resistance! 😮

[@ali-tr9tp]

do you know sir the bottled water we are drinking has lower tds (total dissolved solids) and less minerals than tap water we used to drink 30-40 years ago, tap water has 300-400 ppm (particle per million) while best bottled water may has 80 ppm, this situation will cause reverse osmosis which will transfer minerals from the body or blood to water and eventually water will be expelled as urine, so maybe that what causes deficiency of minerals in the body and then a demand to food even if a person eats. a change to man life style is always accompanied with a problem because allah made man kind , he knows exactly what people needs. what do you think about this idea sir and thank you

[@lynzlynsbrand956]

Great channel.what are your thoughts on oats?thanks

[@KickItNaturally]

Thanks, I view oats as a high carb food

[@chrystale888]

I eat a small amount of carbs only in the morning with coffee to energise my day

[@KickItNaturally]

Cycling carbs like that can be very helpful like we talk about in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZyYgGZuaNt-ecU

[@trtony-xe4cl]

What about the Dawn phenomenon, doesnt our body automatically raise blood sugars before we wake for energy is it best to wait 1 to 2 hours after waking to test blood, sugars,????? Our bodies are So Dang Complicated aren't they,,NOW get off me,,

[@KickItNaturally]

:) We like to look at blood sugar right when you rise because that's the best sign of whether or not your body could recover from the day before. Depending on a lot of factors, blood sugar could also go up the longer a person is awake, even if they don't eat.

[@kritsaphongphuthibpaphaisi1509]

That's way I craving sugar all the time, mineral deficiency

[@KickItNaturally]

Could be. We talk about that in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWTUfpdmramMjLs

Right? Thanks for sharing this.

[@haroldhart2688]

JUST GIVE US THE ANSWERS GUY !!!!!!!!

[@KickItNaturally]

People who just want to be told what to do, almost never improve their heath. Be patient with yourself and allow yourself the time to actually learn what is causing problems for YOU, because that will vary from person to person. If you're just looking for someone who will tell you steps to take, they are going to be right about 18% of the time.

[@rhollyday]

Exercise not even mentioned. LOL

[@KickItNaturally]

trying to outtrain bad food habits is a common mistake.

[@kadamsvlogs8868]

This is a "follow the chain of my videos" game. Im out

[@KickItNaturally]

If you're looking for remedies in a 2 minute video, this is the wrong place. We like to teach people how to fix the actual underlying causes of their problems, and that takes longer to explain. You can explain that in one two minute video in most cases.
